Randomized Controlled Trial
The effect of tranexamic acid for treatment of irregular uterine bleeding secondary to Norplant use.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of tranexamic acid and placebo on controlling irregular uterine bleeding secondary to Norplant use. ⋯ Tranexamic acid for 5 days appears to be an effective treatment for irregular uterine bleeding associated with Norplant use only while it is being used. However, treatment for 5 days does not seem to provide long-term benefit.
